In reality there should be quite a lot of recalls in the tackle industry as quite a lot of it is not fit for purpose but they never recall anything as they couldnt care less

That's a bit poor from Korda as I contacted numerous retailers as really wanted one and all of them were waiting on stock, no mention of a recall or any issues (this was beginning to middle of last year).

Edit end of year as initially told discontinued until this thread popped up when I called back around, losing track of time as I get older!

I've got one. Not heard anything about a recall and can't see why either? It is a pole that screws together with a spike at one end and a Carabiner at the other...

Was in Johnson Ross today and the issue is with the join/thread on the pole, emailed Korda who told me it has been discontinued. Shame as I used one at Gigantica and liked it, I am currently making my own using an old landing net pole and a 'crook' purchased from the tackle box.

Is it completely discontinued or will there be a revised one coming out?

I was told they are working on a new one but maybe they have changed their minds

The guy said they had been discontinued hence me making my own as a trakker one similar to the one I'm making is £50+ and the bits I've bought come to less than a score.
